The face of the Dutch anti-coronavirus measure movement Willem Engel has been arrested in Rotterdam.
Engel is suspected to have posted coronavirus-related messages on social media that promote civil unrest, reports the NOS.
Who is Willem Engel?
Willem Engel is the leader of the Dutch ‘Virus Truth’ (viruswaarheid) movement that advocates against governmental coronavirus measures.
Not to mention, Engel is a staunch supporter of Russian President Putin and its invasion of Ukraine.
The Dutch public prosecution office already incited an investigation against Engel in January based on a petition signed by 22,000 individuals.
The petition raised concerns that Engel was involved in calls to civil unrest, the spreading of medical misinformation and posed a high potential to commit terrorist acts.

extremely low effort and low information. When you smear someone you should back it up, but backing it up would expose your petty framing.
Oh God any toddler can write a better and more substantial article. Just for your info: the campaign against Engel is lead by worn down yuppie Dikkeboom (thick tree, probably his tree is not that thick) who is jealous. It’s so petty and simple. I don’t agree with much of Engels opinion but this is a democracy not the DDR.
Shocking. I had a better opinion of the Dutch. I did not think they had such a collaborator mentality since 1945.
